What do reviewers say about Charles Street and Royal Leather?
The leather here is structural. It provides the framework for the entire composition. Everything else, coffee, raspberry, vanilla, builds around it. For someone who values substance and depth in.Charles Street
The leather here doesn't bite. It wraps. Softened by iris, sweetened by dried fruits, it becomes something a man wears to dinner rather than a fight. The saffron keeps it interesting.Royal Leather
